It was a long journey last week.
In February 2014, I passed the replacement test to studied
english at IALF Bali for the GE group . I go to Bali for english courses in
order to improve the competence of the English. I study at IALF with the other
lecturers dan staff from different units and faculties . We gone to Denpasar with
1 small and 1 minibus bus . At first, I thought that all women will be put on
the same bus because the minibus was not comfortable for long journeys. But, I
was wrong. I am in a minibus with 2 women and 6 men . It is not a pleasant
start for me. But this is the rules made by the committee .
Trip to Bali passing through several cities such as Pasuruan,
Probolinggo, Situbondo, and Banyuwangi . The beginning of an unfortunate trip
to pasuruan running smoothly . The minibus run slow . Until in Probolinggo , we
began to feel the heat on the bus . Looks like minibus driver accidentally turning
off the AC to save fuel. We finally protested and asked the driver to turn on
the AC. The first problem has been Finished. Until in Situbondo, the problem
comes again. We stopped at a restaurant that is not the same as the group on the
bus. Most of us ordered rawon.What a pity, the rice is half-cooked so I just
ate 2 spoons.
Minibus drove again at medium speed to banyuwang until we
crossed over to the island of Bali. Arrive to Gilimanuk, there was jam traffic
because this was the only one streets to enter and exit Bali via Gilimanuk .
Our minibus drived slowed. I feel Denpasar so far. I repeatedly asked a friend
who sits beside me whether Denpasar is near. To spent time, My friend play the
movie on the screen are provided in the minibus. And finally, the film with a
duration of 2 hours finished just a few minutes before we arrived at Denpasar
IALF at 9 pm. That was a tired journey to achieve my dream for get better in english
capability.
